israeli expert: Bush can't attack Iran
US President George Bush does not have sufficient credit to initiate a military strike on Iran, Giora Romm, senior researcher for the Jewish Institute for National Security Affairs, told a forum attended by members of the Foreign Ministry and delegates from the American Jewish community in Jerusalem Tuesday.
Romm was a former Air Force pilot, Assistant Director of IDF operations, defense attache to Washington and a former head of the Jewish Agency.He recently returned from Washington, and described how senior American officials were completely preoccupied with the war in Iraq.
"Iraq is sitting very heavily on them," Romm said, adding that the problems of the Iraq war have robbed President Bush of any credibility.
Quoting a senior American official, Romm told the forum, "If Bush does something physical to Iran, he will be impeached."
"Bush has no military credit. Don't delude yourself by thinking that Bush has a military option (regarding Iran). I don't think the average American is convinced that his country is in danger (from Iran), and isn't moved by dangers in the Middle East.
After 3.5 years in Iraq, he won't be convinced by wishy washy intelligence," Romm said.
So, we might as well not bother planting it.
He added that the same source, from the Democratic Party, said, "If there isn't a change in Iraq within six months, I'm told, people will take to the streets like in Vietnam."
Sounds like a good plan to me.
Speaking to Ynetnews, Romm said he "could see a situation where we would attack Iran and the United States won't, but I can't estimate that now."
Just as I suspected - if anyone pulls the trigger on Iran, it's going to be israel.
Romm added that the American-Israeli alliance has not been endangered following the Democratic upswing in the US elections.
Tell us something we don't already know.
Romm launched into a detailed analysis of the Lebanon war, and said that "several operational aspects of the war disturbed me," citing a lack of clear political and military directives.
"If you're setting out objectives, go through with then," Romm said, adding that a change in the land fighting approach was also needed.
"If we know Hizbullah is planning to kidnap our soldiers, we should set out, publicly, on the front page, 20 targets in Lebanon, and say 10 of them will be destroyed, no matter who is there, if the kidnapping takes place. And we should transmit this directive to the Lebanese government, with no secrecy," Romm said.
In other words, to hell with international law, this is the law of the Zionist jungle, baby.

Zionists tell brainwashed US government what to do
It is the Zionists that control almost every facet of the U.S. government and news/ entertainment sector -- economics, finance, military, media and national security.
They have set up Office of Special Plans at the Pentagon and other so-called important offices that aim to assist State of Israel to achieve its objectives of challenging the Middle East and Central Asia through the strength of American political and military might.
American politicians are subordinate to the State of Israel. They have pledged to defend Israel, regardless of America's incessant needs to support itself through clarifying and rectifying crucial domestic issues.
The Founding Fathers have repeatedly warned against the persistently dangerous foreign influence that would affect the United States in economical health, upholding of good morals & proper conduct of justice and national pride.
I leave the quote below to the Zionist-occupied Washington people of significant importance in government and foreign affairs to ponder.
If they continue to ignore the Founding Fathers' wise insight on taking care of America FIRST, then they are complicit in the eventual decline and fall of the U.S. Republic.
Too little, too late.
